You missed out the bit about you all being naked.

Nah. I was a rebel. Instead of the black school tracksuit top I had a dark blue sergio tacchini zip up number with green stripes at the top. Another reason I didn't make the 1st XV despite being the best full back.

Lunch - Ham sandwich from Tescos.

Verdict - Given I have been exuding a stinging yellowish liquid from my backside at 10 minute intervals for the past hour I cannot give it a mark. I have saved them for the sh1tters at work. I've now used 3 out of the possible 5 and the 2 remaining cubicles are on my floor.

The anal discharge is almost certainly the result of the sandwich Sean, as opposed to the copious amounts of alcohol you drink on a seemingly daily basis.

This makes me glad to live in the same country as the proud and honourable men and women of the north.

God bless the Daily Mail, if it ain't the immigrants fault, it is pen pushing jobsworths in the council.

by **Galted** Thu 12 Jun 2014, 7:43 pm

The Daily Mail's become my home away from 606 v2. I suspect that some of the "outrage over drunken antics" articles I read were written about michaels.

by Rowley Thu 12 Jun 2014, 7:45 pm

I struggle to take Michael's drunken antics seriously since I discovered he wore a Tech by Tumi coat. Is like trying to believe Richard Briers is a crack addict.

I've decided to dye the tips of my hair blonde. So excited!!

by **Galted** Thu 12 Jun 2014, 8:12 pm

I think that was meant for the weightlifting/touching each other's balls section, kingraf. It's only going to provoke northern scorn on this one. You best redeem yourself by telling us how you headbutted a zebra earlier today.

by Rowley Thu 12 Jun 2014, 8:25 pm

I despair of the youth of today Galted. Is bad enough he would consider such a thing, but to think any of us care is beyond the pale.

No dice with the zebra, but I did recently take an awesome selfie with a Lion. A trained lion, but a lion nonetheless.

Redemption successful (you do mean a Panthera Leo and not Mike Phillips getting lost on his way home from Australia don't you?)

Disgraceful, Jeff. Nearly as disgraceful as this bloody f*cking Adobe Flash Player upgrade that keeps taking over this tab whenever I try to post.

Anyone watching the footie? What's up with the doves?

Vomit-inducing isn't it? Was hoping the same would happen when some got released at the Vatican and one got nailed by a hawk.

Evening.

by **Galted** Thu 12 Jun 2014, 10:44 pm

Evening. Sorry about the belated reply but when I saw your name appear I got so excited I p1ssed all over the chair.

by **Galted** Thu 12 Jun 2014, 11:00 pm

These are some of the things that have annoyed me today: doves, Adobe Flash Player upgrade, Brazil, train delays etc

by **Galted** Thu 12 Jun 2014, 11:06 pm

contd: Big Brother and the fact that it can be recorded etc

by **seanmichaels** Thu 12 Jun 2014, 11:16 pm

My arse is still like a natural spring. Evening galted. Miss you.

Hull KR. Sort yourself out son.

by **Galted** Thu 12 Jun 2014, 11:17 pm

Evening, michaels. Sounded more like an unnatural spring. Miss you too.

Yesssssss!

England's day in the end. Looked shaky for a while but they will be pleased with that.

Aye. Think you'll see a lot of runs on saturday now. Pitch visually dried up.

Agreed, but I have visions of sitting watching the Sri Lankans bat for an entire day. Would like to see both teams bat but I doubt enough wickets will fall today and tomorrow for that.

by **seanmichaels** Fri 13 Jun 2014, 8:29 am

There'll probably be a plethora of knockers on view to keep you entertained.

That's what I love about you, Seany. Always get the conversation back on safe ground.

One of the bastard kids has got hold of my sunglasses though and bent the arms out of shape. I am going to have to get a new pair today. Absolutely vital tool for birdwatching at the cricket.

by **seanmichaels** Fri 13 Jun 2014, 8:39 am

Glasses are a bugger. Mine are on their last legs and I don't have any prescription sunglasses. Spend my days squinting. Missus supposed to be buying me some but keeps buying £110 key fobs instead.

And £3000 front doors.

by **JuliusHMarx** Fri 13 Jun 2014, 8:44 am

It should come as no surprise to anyone that I wear glasses. I even need a separate pair of reading glasses 'cos I'm so old and my eyes are sh!t.

Morning Seano, morning Tino-o.

by **seanmichaels** Fri 13 Jun 2014, 8:46 am

I'll be playing in the Dulwich area tomorrow. Lovely ground but crap pitch. Pavillion overlooks a tennis club at the back which is usually full of clunge.

Do you keep them on a chain round your neck? What about monocles? Do you have one of those?

It is a surprise. I had you down as a monocle type of guy.

by **JuliusHMarx** Fri 13 Jun 2014, 8:48 am

I have two monocles Tino. One for each eye.

It's wide open this year, my tennis-following friend. Wouldn't be overly surprised to see a new winner, but if I had to pick a name, I'd say Djokovic.

by **seanmichaels** Fri 13 Jun 2014, 8:56 am

On the subject of Wimbledon, would you do Mauresmo? I think I probably would for her athleticism but she looks god awful in some photos.

Does Murray have a realistic shot?

I have to say, although I am not a follower, I saw Nadal's record at the French Open t'other day. They did some feature on it on Sky. That really is an impressive record. He has only lost game? And won it 9 times. That is outrageous form. Ridiculous domination of a tournament.

She bats for the other team, doesn't she? Or do you think you could turn her?

by **JuliusHMarx** Fri 13 Jun 2014, 9:00 am

Murray's got a good chance, just a few little things that haven't come together yet since his back surgery.

We're not going to talk about cricket and tennis all day, are we?

I was going to try but Sean is determined to bring it back round to smut.

by **seanmichaels** Fri 13 Jun 2014, 9:26 am

That lady is for turning.

Always remember an episode of Men Behaving Badly where Tony compared feminism to getting a new train set for Christmas. You get all excited setting it up but then you realise there is no plug for the socket.

I got Australia in the sweepstake at work. No f*cking chance of them winning.

Why not? We are good at Hockey. In both Men's (v Netherlands) and Women's (v Argentina) Finals I believe.

I got Ghana in one sweepstake, Italy in another. Oh Lord... I hope they don't win again. Damned cheats! (emotional bastards too!)

It's nothing personal, LB, I love the Aussie attitude to sports in general. First is first, second is sh*t. I wish British schools were a little more like this instead of the general "it's the taking part that counts" theory.

Having said that, you really have no f*cking chance of winning!
